As opposed to what is likely to happen with
most of the sectors, the Brazilian medical industry will grow more than
initially proposed. Abimed (Brazilian Association of Medical Devices, Products
and Supplies) corrected the estimated growth of this year, from 8% to 10%.
“The healthcare sector growth tends always to
be higher than the GDP’s, since the population is aging and technologies brings
innovations”, says Carlos Goulart, Abimed’s President.
Other statistics are also optimistics. The
industry sales grew by 9.3%; the production by 5.7% and jobs creation grew by
3,7% during the period January - August/2014, when compared to the same period
of 2013.
